The Ford Tri-Motor airliner is coming to Concord! Climb aboard one of the first mass-produced airliners and step back in time to aviation’s golden age. A flight on EAA’s Ford Tri-Motor is a flight back to an era where air travel was considered a luxury.

Recall the energy, passion, and excitement of the Roaring ’20s by flying aboard the Ford Tri-Motor. Known as the first luxury airliner, the Ford Tri-Motor redefined world travel and marked the beginning of commercial flight. Here is your rare opportunity to fly in an authentic Ford Tri-Motor, America’s first mass-produced airliner. Each flight experience is approximately 30 minutes, of which about 15 minutes will be in the air. Families are invited to visit and learn all about the aircraft and the organization. Viewing the aircraft is free, so be sure to bring your camera along.

Revenues from the Ford Tri-Motor tour help cover maintenance and operations costs for the aircraft and aid our ambition to keep the “Tin Goose” flying for many years to come.

Cost: Viewing the aircraft is free; flights are $70 per adult in advance, $50 per child 17 and under
